Summary/Abstract: The paper describes short films made by Wojciech Has, for example Harmonia (1947), Moje Miasto (1950), and searches for traces of (auto)biography in them. The purpose was to show their semantic potential and to draw attention to the richness of possible interpretations. Only an attitude of scientific openness enables the avoidance of the burden of all fundamentalisms, certainties, and holistic approaches. The educational perspective was revealed in the update of research tools related to hermeneutics and thematic perspective.
